Fresh paint on old roof
Sanded, primed and painted the aluminum roof. There was almost none of the original paint left. Products: Rustoleum oil-based primer and paint for aluminum and UVF protection.

Nice .  Not sure if you had seen any previous posting where when painting the roof to use an anti-slip grit additive.
Almost all paint manufacturers sell anti-slip additives.
The Factory used anti-slip paint on the roof.

Thanks, Larry.
Good suggestion, we considered it. We decided to put the anti-slip strips across the cross-beams, just haven’t done it yet.
